328. Between siblings
Towards the end of the year, Yinzhen kept his promise and took me to the garden.
The emperor didn't talk much, and he was accompanied by Hongli and his family Fujin, because Yan Hui was happy.
I don't know how much Yinzhen likes this daughter-in-law, or to express his father's love for Hongli, in short, this time the movement is quite big, not only with the two of them, but also gave a Changchun Immortal Pavilion as the residence of the young couple in the Old Summer Palace.
I went around in a circle and looked left and right, which was really good.
Hongli led Yan Hui to follow slowly, and said a few words from time to time between stops and turns, I couldn't hear clearly, and I didn't want to listen.
I don't know what happened to Miss Xilian, she was pregnant at this time last year, and she was by Hongli's side, and now she has changed to another woman to dominate the scene. really responded to that sentence - thirty years in Hedong, thirty years in Hexi, but where can this royal inner garden be used for so long, three or two months of love is already grace, and how long it can be endured is fate.
For example, Gu Changzai, who had just entered the palace in early summer, took the lead in Jinfeng, but his life was short, and before the emperor was lucky, there was no loess when the autumn wind rose.
The kind-hearted only said that she was weak and could not bear the royal favor, and with a little malice, she speculated that the palace was a golden cage that eats people and does not spit out bones, just as if they had the opportunity to enjoy this blessing, and the grapes that could not be eaten were sour.
However, the woman chosen by Yinzhen is indeed settled, even if she is as smart as Liu, she is also a self-guard, except for the eyes that caught my eye on the Halloween, there is no sense of zĂ i on weekdays. They didn't even mention it again, as if the little woman had never appeared.
Winter snow day after day, but no auspicious signs can be felt. After experiencing the expectation of joy, I can better understand the sadness, and the seven years of Yongzheng are not easy.
Hongli's daughter is gone, and the one-year-old milk doll is just about to walk a few steps around, soft and cute. Who would have thought that a cold would fall ill in his mother's arms, and after a few days, he finally closed his bright eyes that originally loved to laugh.
Yan Hui endured the heartache of the bereaved daughter, sobbed and shed tears for a day, but did not say anything more. Morning sickness is in the hardest months, trying to force yourself to eat, drink and rest. Hongli saw Fujin suffering, regretted the death of his young daughter, and at the same time was more careful with Yan Hui, he was with him in the house when he was not busy with business, and occasionally took advantage of the good weather to go out for a walk.
Others can't say much about these things, Yinzhen explained to take good care of them, and the minions didn't dare to disobey, so I was left at ease. What really worries me is Yinxiang, who is even more sick than the year before.
When I first got the news, it was on Yinzhen's birthday, and I was busy every morning and evening, physically and mentally exhausted. I thought that the state affairs were heavy, but when I felt that something was wrong, I didn't make a fuss like last time, maybe because I knew it in my heart, but it seemed calm and abnormal, and he saw that he couldn't hide it, so he half-concealed and half-concealed it.
What's the matter, what can I do in this year, just do my best to obey the destiny of heaven. How else to say that people's fate is predestined, or - character determines fate.
Yinzhen specially reprimanded the envoy of the Tai Hospital to serve as the head of the household, just to be by Yinxiang's side and keep an eye on his physical condition. However, obviously his health is not good, and he insists on going out of Beijing on an errand, working day and night, how can he not get sick!
I can't blame Yinzhen, he tried his best, he also felt sorry for Yinxiang, blame only the character for harming people, how could I not know what my own brother is like.
Xiaoyan didn't say anything, and took care of it wholeheartedly, only hoping that Yinxiang would stop being reckless.
Yinzhen's strength played a slight role, forcing Yinxiang not to go out to recuperate at home. It's a pity that Prince Yi, who has a strong sense of responsibility, is concerned about the government and politics, and he has to be sent over to see the official documents.
The emperor was also helpless, and thought about it to point out Honghui's family affairs. The youngest daughter is about to get married, and Yinxiang is a little conscious, and if he doesn't take care of his body, he doesn't want to send his daughter out of the cabinet.
After more than a month, I finally saw some improvement. At the end of the year, Honghui married the Borzigit clan of Khalkha as the princess of Heshuo and Hui, and left Beijing with the countless dowries prepared for him by the emperor's adoptive father.
Yinxiang was more reluctant than filial piety, and the pestle looked at the palace wall for a long time, until the sun set on the west mountain, the twilight became thicker, and he still refused to go. Yinzhen and I stood farther away, looking at his and Xiaoyan's backs, as parents, and felt the same way.
If it weren't for God's arrangement, if we were still in the future time and space, maybe one day I would see what he looked like when he sent me to get married, and he would definitely not be able to let go of it at that time, but he wouldn't be bitter like this.
In this life, he will accompany me for the end. I can't, and he doesn't need it.
On Chinese New Year's Eve this year, the sound of firecrackers filled the night sky. Xu Yinzhen wants to get rid of all the unhappiness, and then Xu wants to hope for a smooth coming year. As an emperor, as he said, he will be afraid, and so am I. No matter how transparent life is, people also have death holes, and for me, it is Yinxiang.
At this point, Yinxiang lives a more casual and chic life than me, one day at a time, never distracted to think about useless possibilities, his time is spent in the right place, and he is very busy.
I don't know if he knows in his heart that this year should be the limit.
On the eighth day of the first lunar month, Yinxiang is going to the North Canal.
Before dawn, Su Peisheng called a message outside the door, and when Meiyu came to speak, Yinzhen was about to get up, and I hurriedly followed out of bed. Hearing the news, there was a direct bang in his head, and he was holding on to the outstretched arm and panting. The two of us looked at each other, and we saw another figure in each other's eyes, and the tears rushed and disappeared.
Yinzhen hurriedly passed on a decree and sent another person to Qinglong Bay. Towards the morning dawn, I sat with him in the chair of the warm pavilion, cold to the bone.
At dawn, he came back and dragged me away.
Until he entered Yinxiang's door, no one said a word, and the palms of the hands he held were wet and cold.
My brother would still laugh and ask us to sit with his hand, still smiling on his bloodless face.
Xiaoyan pushed me to sit on the edge of the bed, and moved an embroidery pier for Yinzhen and left. I pulled my hand over the quilt and tried to touch it, but I didn't feel the pain with enough strength.
He still smiled, smiling at me, smiling at Yinzhen, with a mouth, and my tears almost fell.
"Did He Guozong go?"
Yin Zhen moved the embroidery pier to the head of the bed, half-bent over to look at him at eye level, and nodded in response: "Yes, I have already gone, don't worry." â
It's like this between men, there are no thousand words, and the eyes meet, it's enough.
He was in better condition than I thought, and he was still tired after a few words, and his eyes were half-closed as if he were asleep, and after a while he tried to open them and said, "Go back, I can't sleep while you're here." â
I didn't dare to be aggrieved, so I whispered back, "I didn't make a sound." â
"I can't sleep if I don't make a sound, go back first, and I'll go to see you tomorrow." â
Nodding and getting up, Yu Guang saw Yinzhen patting him on the shoulder, just like when he was separated on weekdays, it was no different.
The huge prince's mansion was silent, and the people who came and went went as if they hadn't seen it, and went straight out of the mansion gate.
Yinzhen held my hand almost to the bone, and I watched the street scene outside the curtain hurriedly retreat, the sound of horses' hooves, wheels, and whips mixed together. There has never been a moment when I longed to go back to the beginning, before I was here. If I can, I won't meet Yinzhen, if I can, we will live in the previous life, if ...... OK.
There are not so many ifs, Zhan Xiaoyi is the queen of Yinzhen, Zhan Xiaoyan is his pillar brother, where can he wave the situation in the past forty years, and he can't help but come back.
If he does not regret, I will not regret it.
What we owe him is integrated into the blood and bones, and we still have the next life, the next life.
~~~
Within two days, Yinzhen wanted to arrange for Yinxiang to recuperate in the garden, but he had never seen his stubbornness, and he only knew when he saw it.
My brother is fine on weekdays, and he is happy by others, but now he is sick and knows that he is willful, and the king of heaven is not in a rut.
I thought it in my heart, but I didn't dare to disturb it, for fear that he wouldn't be able to stand it in his heart, and I wouldn't be able to stand it. When we meet, we all laugh, and even more so when we are in good health, we talk about the past for a while, but we can't talk about the future. Brother and sister, who doesn't know whom, endure each other so that they don't let each other see the heartache.
When people live, they want to be happy, and they live every day and laugh every day, do they cry?
Xiaoyan too, I haven't seen her cry, we can't, even more so in front of Yinxiang, we can't block him, we can't make him more worried.
Yin Zhen sighed that he had never seen a brother and sister like us, yes, his brothers fought for a lifetime, and his sisters married far away, who has the time to be intimate and gossip, that is the life of ordinary people, and the royal family is not prosperous.
Yin Zhen asked me if I wanted to go to Prince Yi's mansion to live for a while, and it was rare for him to be so considerate, but I refused. Yinxiang hasn't reached the time when he can't do it, it's really not good, and he doesn't want to see me by my side and be sad every day. I'll go see him, and when he's better, he'll come to see me, and I'll wait.
Sure enough, he came, and entered the palace when the weather was getting warmer. In the past, the high-headed horse, or sitting in the sedan chair, is now ...... It's good to come.
The first time, he was sitting on the soft couch in the warm pavilion, and the brothers were half-lying and half-lying to play chess, occasionally saying a word, as if on weekdays. When it comes to the head of the government, it is like being there every day. Occasionally, when he is interested, he will smoke a bag, as if lying on his own kang, a rare arbitrariness.
Seeing him like this, Yinzhen was a little relieved, and before leaving, he still instructed him to take care of him. Yinxiang grinned happily, responded well, walked slowly through the palace road, occasionally stopped, looked up at the branches and shoots, and continued to move forward. His legs and feet were not as broken as in previous years, and the slower he walked, the two of us watched from afar, and we were alone among the red walls and golden tiles.
Time is the most ruthless, and it never waits for anyone.
The flowers have bloomed, but they have not yet seen improvement, but they always enter the palace every ten days.
I counted the days and waited, and I did not go any longer to his house, but waited for him to come.
